HomeworkHomework

 

Seventh grade was a bitch.
Eighth grade even worse.
Older sister home from school.
English assignment. Find a victim.

Write a poem.
Create fiction.
Inspire the masses.

Ingenious. Incomparable!

was whispered in the halls.

A year later. Same instructor.
I got Cs.
Needs work.
Ask your sister for guidance.
